Let's see...
Jovians... I don't even think they know what sex is anymore. Heavily Japanese-influenced Caldari honour-bound culture ? If any non-hetero behaviour exists, it's repressed. Pseudo-orthodox christian Amarr ? You just know non-heterosexuality is not tolerated. Tribal Minmatar ? Oh, do I have to go there ? So that leaves only the Gallente.
Gallente should be (at least theoretically) pretty laissez-faire as far as sexuality goes. If you get any non-heterosexual stories going, chances are it will be from there.

I don't understand why every form of media has to acknowledge a certain loud, politically active 3-5% of the population.
It's because we DO exist. Like I said, I don't expect every other character to love teh caulk. All I'm asking for is an honorable mention. If sexuality has no relevance to the story- IE: escaping from a shipwreck, it shouldn't be included. AT ALL. But if it's a club/bar scene, it's expected that the character will notice/be noticed.
Does every single 'alternate lifestyle/sexuality/whatever else' person on the planet suddenly deserve a round of applause and recognition all of a sudden for being different from generic assumptions? I'm having trouble fathoming what all the fuss is about tbh.

It's already been said that gay characters are mentioned in the eve lore, it don't seem reasonable to expect CCP/writers to spend time making detailed descriptions on how every minority group fits in to the eve universe.

Originally by: CCP Maiden Steel There are a handful of recorded alternative-sexuality characters within EVE lore. Certain of the chronicles -- In the Electric Museum in particular -- make mention of this. It's been suggested that non-straight behaviour is strongly discouraged within the Caldari State, hence a notable proportion of pirate-faction Caldari NPCs with alternative sexualities; Gallente culture is said to be far more openminded to it.
If you're referring to a lack of characters used in fiction pieces who are anything other than straight... you're right, we don't use them very much, and this should be remedied

It doesn't matter, of course you exist, but what you do in your home has nothing to do with the world around.
Are you defined by that one part of you? Is that all you are? Once people get out of that (straight as well as non straight) then I think the world will be a better place.

Give me a break ffs, lets just give every deviant a podium then. When we gonna get the first story of an amarr who likes to dress up as a slaver hound before he gets his buggery. Or perhaps the androgynous matari who's got DD's but hides a real weapon of mass destruction in it's sporting skin tight nex wear.
I think you get the point.

The existence of LGBT characters in the EVE universe is assumed. As a Bi person myself my mind just automatically fills in that part of the backstory. CCP shouldn't have to make special mention of them.I know what you want is just a small nod of recognition, but if you got it, where would it end? All these different activist groups, vegetarians, vegans, feminists, racial organizations, etc all demanding CCP to put their little slice of objective reality into the lore until it is filled with sloppily thrown together bits of affirmative action drivel. I play EVE to escape reality, and I would hate to have to pick little tendrils of it out just to enjoy the game I love.

Edited by: Digital Messiah on 21/07/2011 23:04:37 I am all for free expression of sexuality. Hell I have supported the movement, been to fund raisers, have many friends "LGBT", but at no point is someone else required to support your life style and choices. If they do so, that is of their own free will. As you would wish to have the free will of your own to have your choices. So don't ask CCP to change their immersion or storyline because you disagree. Instead Role play as you like, and you won't be persecuted.
A lot of the storyline in eve, as already pointed out, is hetero. That is just the immersion of the game and its storyline. You wouldn't ask to change the history books to make **** Germany more fabulous would you?
And after this they will probably add the tragic story of two forsaken lovers of the amarr empire. Running away from the throne worlds to be in the accepting understanding gallente frontier! I don't understand why we have to have a love story, soft core erotica, or sexual preferences, hetero or otherwise, in the storyline. But it will probably be there to sate the desires of the community.
Of course now I want the forbidden love story of an amarrian slaver and minmatar slave in there as well .

I will never understand gay men. Or straight women. (But I'm glad the latter exist)
(I'm saying dudes are ugly is what I'm saying)
Actually on-topic:
I demand a Quebecois Gallante origin tree. The Gallante are French in origin, but I only care about some relatively insignificant part of my identity so I DEMAND CCP INCLUDE IT THEY ARE A MINORITY TOO.

Correct. Here in the US everyone is completely sexless until the age of 18, at which point the skies open and Jesus points his finger down from the heavens and magically bestows upon us the Sacrament of Adulthood, where we can then suddenly vote and watch or participate in ****, but for some reason can't drink alcohol for three more years. Yeah, I don't understand it either.

No, noooo... those are catholic christian with those "problems". The orthodox have different rules. No celibacy for the orthodox clergy, they're actually expected to get married before being "put into office" and also have as large of a family as they can manage. _

It's because we DO exist.
Taking the big one is not an identity and people like you annoy everybody by trying to invent one.
Today you like the sausage, maybe tommorrow you like the clam.
Love is love, limiting yourself to one body part is stupid, maybe you meet the love of your life and they have vagina, what you gonna say?
Identity is individual, not group of loud self-fabricated "minority."
Homosexuality began as wanting freedom to love whoever.
Now it's just bunch of annoying tards who think sucking pee pee is a race.

I hope that at least the writers don't start trying too hard to be "diversive" so much that instead of being part of the story, the diversity elements appear to be something that the story is wrapped around. This ends up in crappy narratives and character backgrounds with damage to the plot, and a reader can tell what the auther was really trying to do. If a character in an Eve chronicle just happens to be GLBT and an element thereof is part of the story, fine. But iif that's the whole story, and it's all about the usual cliches of intolerance, religion, etc (when in fact, most of humanity does have better things to worry and think about), then it's going to make the chronicles start feeling like listening to those narratives on NPR.

In EVE lore Ni-Kunni men can have more than one wife. I believe I also read somewhere that Ni-Kunni do not look down upon bi-sexuality and or same-sex relationships as long as the male can provide for those that he has relationships with.
Can't remember where I read this, but I am pretty sure I read it while doing research for my fan novel based on the EVE Universe.

You are mistaken, you need to pay closer attention to the lore. While rarely explicit there is a lesbian couple, a gay priest, a paedophile, a polyamorous swinger, a debaucher, prostitutes/sex slaves, a gay Gallente politician and a polyandrous Empress.
